Magic's journey to transform from a converting company to a raw materials production company began in 2015, when Spongel, a biodegradable and compostable super absorbent powder, was developed and patented.
This innovation marked the starting point for tackling a new challenge: the installation of its own plant to produce a compostable airlaid. The goal is twofold: to offer customers an eco-sustainable solution and to lead a rapidly evolving market.
The strategic decision to invest in a production line started a transformation process that positioned the company as a pioneer in the industry and revolutionized its product offering, ensuring high quality at competitive prices. The control of the whole process, which was made easier by the plant's advanced technology, enabled the development of customized products meeting customers’ ever-evolving needs.
The plant, designed in collaboration with Campen Machinery and inaugurated in 2020, was conceived according to Industry 4.0 principles and is an example of technological interconnection and flexibility.
The transition to Airgel g-grade production was not without a few challenges, but it allowed Magic to strengthen its position in the food packaging industry with G-pad, a compostable absorbent food pad; it provides a solution to the problem of disposal in a sector often criticised for its environmental impact, facilitating perfect recycling.
The development of a compostable airlaid also enabled an innovative and cutting-edge approach to the hygiene industry.
In 2023, Magic took a further strategic step by investing in an upgrade of the existing plant. Sustainability should not stop at product development alone but applies even more to production processes.
This commitment has involved optimising energy efficiency during the production process and calculating energy consumption per ton of material produced, which has already yielded significant results, such as a 17% improvement in energy efficiency and a 12% reduction in gas consumption.
Thanks to this vision, Magic not only keeps on innovating, but also sets new standards of efficiency and environmental responsibility in the absorbent materials industry.

2moAtt använda naturens egna resurser, som gödsel och skogsfibrer, för att främja en cirkulär ekonomi är ett strålande exempel på hur vi kan skapa innovationer som gynnar både företag och miljön. Vi ser fram emot att följa Heikki Sojakka och SOLSERVs fortsatta arbete med stort intresse, och hoppas att fler aktörer i branschen inspireras att ta liknande steg mot en mer hållbar framtid.
